It's crazy just how far this engine bay has been transformed in the few months we've owned this car, from near stock looking to what it is now. What do you guys think of the finished result?

[@xxraverxxonxtacy]

"Yes Officer, It's Stock." 😆 Clean and Stealthy good job mate.

[@JacksonStrain]

Haha exactly, thanks mate

[@Lxch]

Looks awesome man Got my metal engine cover coming this week hopefully Thinking of doing a green themed engine bay

[@JacksonStrain]

Hell yeah man, green will look great

[@bigdavefayscotlandrhodesyb6729]

Looking good mate 👌

[@JacksonStrain]

Thanks mate 😀

[@ThePASBERUK]

That engine bay is cure for depression

[@JacksonStrain]

Haha thanks Cody 😄

[@plac-horizon0043]

great job mate i love it simple is good !!!!! ✨✨✨✨

[@JacksonStrain]

Thanks mate, it's amazing how good this car is looking now and Letisha no longer says she misses her Ralliart every day as I think she finally likes the Evo a lot more haha

[@plac-horizon0043]

@@JacksonStrain yeah mate totally this evo is really special

[@JacksonStrain]

@@plac-horizon0043 thanks man, I'll show Letisha these comments and I'd say it will make her day 😀

[@kenmaller2456]

Looks good!!! I think you need a clear coat over the base coat red to make it pop ! For the positive cable cover I found if you rough it up with green scotch brite pad it makes the under coat bond much better .

[@JacksonStrain]

Hey Ken, I was just thinking some clear would help so may fix that up over the next few days. And yes a definitely should have scuffed the cover up a bit but luckily Letisha said she prefers it in black

[@kenmaller2456]

I have set of chrome heater A/C dials if you want them or black , I’ve gone back to silver .

[@JacksonStrain]

@@kenmaller2456 thanks Ken, I'll have a think about it as I do want to keep some silver to match the SST pieces

[@kenmaller2456]

👍

[@alexicutcliffe4825]

Hey mate, just wondering where you got the driven fab catch can?? I can’t find them anywhere

[@JacksonStrain]

Hey mate we got it used off fb marketplace as unfortunately they're impossible to get these days with driven fab not finishing customer orders from what I've seen. Your best option if you want this style of catch can is the Maperformance one

[@fps-gs3hz]

Wow I don't know which engine bay I like better yours or hers

[@JacksonStrain]

Haha thanks mate, that's a common discussion here at home 😬

[@rohandemoore5083]

Hey mate, what hood struts did u use?

[@JacksonStrain]

Hey mate there's a link to some in the video description. The seller i got them from doesn't have them but the ones in the link look identical

[@rohandemoore5083]

@@JacksonStrain I got some from eBay but was having trouble locating where to attach the lower bolt as it didn't have anywhere to go

[@JacksonStrain]

@@rohandemoore5083 ah damn I've noticed some later model cars don't have the bracket where they are mounted to and you might have to buy the clubspec customs kit for mounting

Intercooler pipe would look good in red tay

[@JacksonStrain]

I feel like it might be a bit much red though as we did consider it, but I like the wrinkle black piping too much
